Synchronistic Spiritual Seeking

The past fortnight I’ve had a few interesting occurrences happen which were of a particularly mystical quality and involving uncanny coincidences… well I thought so anyway. These types of things haven’t happened to me for sometime and lately it has felt as though I’ve been getting into some sort of spiritual flow where I’m being thrown random messages left, right and center which really confirm for the fact that there is a subtle higher force guiding me and trying to remind me constantly of the things of greatest importance for me and my spiritual growth in the here and now.

SYNCHRONICITY

the simultaneous occurrence of events which appear significantly related but have no discernible causal connection

The terms coincidence and serendipity can also be used to describe such occurrences but the quality that separates synchronicity from these terms is that the individual experiencing them describes them as being MEANINGFUL in their nature. This term was coined by the well know psychologist Carl Jung in the early twentieth century.

I’ve been studying and practicing astral projection techniques taught by the spiritual teacher Belsebuub with some vigor this past month and a couple of weeks ago I manged to project into the astral plane immediately from the moment I feel asleep. Using the technique of focusing all my attention upon my heartbeat as I fell asleep, I suddenly found myself rising out of my body and floating at the edge of my bed. The laws governing the astral plane are extremely different to the physical realm but just as here we have physical laws such as the law of gravity, the astral dimension, which is the fifth dimension of our reality has its own laws too. There you are able to move straight through objects such as doors, walls and windows.

So as most times I decided to take the quickest route outside of my house and moved straight through my window in the back yard. I knew I could do almost anything I wanted just as long as I remained focused and grounded because if you don’t keep the focus you are likely to drift off into a dream. I had decided that my goal when I did manage to project was to call upon a spiritual being, which is something you can do on the astral plane since many spiritual being reside on this higher dimension, many of whom can be seen teaching us in our dreams in an attempt to guide us in the right direction spiritually. I had been drawn to reading a bit about the Ascended Master Teachings those past few days and was particularly drawn to one master the teachings had described known as Hilarion. I also read that HP Blavatsky referred to him as “the Greek gentleman”. The qualities he is said to represent in much of the random information floating around on the Internet really resonated with me and somehow I felt connected to him just from reading the tiniest fragments a which I wasn’t even sure were true. So in order to prove or disprove the things I had read I called out to him to come and reveal himself to me on the Astral Plane as I wished for him to share some of his wisdom about a few of things I felt I needed to learn more about.

I called as loud as I could looking up toward the sky. I looked around and from over the fence I could see a glowing light approaching the gate in the backyard. A hand reached over the gate and unlocked it, opened it, and there were about three other individuals with him who weren’t glowing as intensely as he was. I was so surprised that it actually worked and in my eagerness I immediately started asking the first person who came through the gate “Is he here? Is Hilarion actually here?”, they remained silent but I could see that they were kinda amused by my child like enthusiasm. He was the last one to come through the gate, and I must say, he was a bit darker in complexion than I had envisioned. The glow coming from him was seriously intense. He kinda walked around me and then he did something that was really funny, but the thing about it was that he was actually making fun of me, I realized this so I was kind of confused as to why a spiritual teacher would make fun of me?? So my reaction was one of laughter, surprise, a bit of confusion and I was a little bit stunned too. He looked at me and kinda gestured in a way that sort of asked “what is it? tell me what you want?”. I then realized I didn’t actually know exactly what it was I wanted to ask him, and my immediate reaction was “I don’t know, Tell me something about _____?” (I wont say exactly what I asked). He then immediately replied with a kinda dramatised and sarcastic answer. This was also quite humorous of him, overall I’d describe him as having a very wise yet silly sense of humor which makes sense to me since I think anyone who is a spiritual master would be very much in touch with their inner child. His reaction wasn’t malicious at all but rather he answered in a way where he wanted me to really see the faults in my way of thinking and the way I had been relating to the subjects I was asking him about which are major blockages to my spiritual development and the best way to make someone realize their faults is to mirror then so that it is plain for them to see and they can see how it looks in another. I’ve read in one of Belsebuub’s books that spiritual masters will try to teach you and help you as best they can but not always in the ways you may think, so this experience with Hilarion confirmed this for me as I certainly didn’t expect that from him, but none the less I gained enormous insight from it. I woke up straight after that conversation and lied still in bed for a few moments just absorbing what I had just experienced, then I couldn’t help but crack up laughing.

AGNOSTICISM

Agnosticism is the view that the truth of certain claims – especially claims about the existence or non-existence of any deity, but also other religious and metaphysical claims – are unknown and (so far as can be judged) unknowable. Agnosticism can be defined in various ways, and is sometimes used to indicate doubt or a skeptical approach to questions. In some senses, agnosticism is a stance about the difference between belief and knowledge, rather than about any specific claim or belief.

All this may sound crazy to someone who has never experienced being awake on the astral plane. Or even to one who has never met a spiritual master on the astral plane as there are many people who have astral traveled. To my mind these types of viewpoints are completely understandable. I’ve had many conversations with many people about mystical and paranormal experiences they have had and many of these people have described things to me that I at the time I had many judgmental thoughts about them and what they were saying. But you see the thing about esoteric spirituality is that it’s got nothing to do with what anyone tells you is true or not true. It’s not about judging one another’s experiences and deciding who is right and who is wrong, it’s simply about experience so who am I to judge what someone else has said was their experience as being true or false or detrimental or beneficial. I can only judge my own experience and at the end of the day, spiritually this is all I have to fall back on when I ask myself “what do I really know about this world and life?”. You can have many spiritual inclinations, intuitions and interests which are all good things if they lead you to want to investigate further to find the truth but if you don’t confirm anything for yourself it’s all hollow knowledge and you can never really honestly be %100 sure of what you are talking about. My intuition led me to read about Hilarion and my Astral experience led me to prove his existence for myself which I hope more people will also do for themselves too.

GNOSIS

Used throughout Greek philosophy as a technical term for experience knowledge in contrast to theoretical knowledge or epistimology

My best advice for learning to Astral Travel is to learn the techniques Belsebuub teaches. They work really well if you apply yourself, but remember your astral body may be a bit rusty so it might take a bit of time to get the cogs moving – it’s a vehicle, one we don’t consciously use unless we discover techniques to get to the astral plane. And check Hilarion out on the Astral Plane too, why not? just see what happens, maybe you’ll discover he exists, maybe you’ll learn something profound – take what you’ve read here and turn it into true knowledge , please don’t just believe me because I said so, that’s just lame 😛
